Eddie and the Hot Rods fucking rocked. It’s criminal that they didn’t become bigger than what they were.

[@ScottishTeeVee]

Agreed.

[@spek-27]

They definitely should have been so much bigger than they were. I always thought that they were very parallel to The Ramones.

[@thomasandersen6719]

should have written better songs....just a pub rock band......DR Feelgood were much better

[@baccaandfriends6098]

​@@thomasandersen6719Yeah this is just twelve bar blues.

68 year old body, but the heart and mind is still 18. Most of the 130,000 subscribers to this channel are in the 50 - 70 age range, loads of friends you just never met. 🎸🏍🍻

With ya at 68, this only reinforces my opinion that todays pop music is very poor.

Drummer is a human metronome, incredible timing

[@ScottishTeeVee]

Thanks for watching and commenting, you are right though, what a drummer🥁🛢🪘

[@spiroschatzist]

One of the biggest British bands of the 70's and of course the "LIFE ON THE LINE" is one of the greatest albums of this decade.

[@stevefrommalton]

Agreed, I bought in on cassette a week after it was released and it stayed in my car's tape player for about 2 years! Still in my top 10 albums of all time.

[@KateRambo]

So much more than a pub rock band, criminally underrated!

[@undergroundwarrior70]

Me, born, grew up, and still reside on the Central West Coast of California, Eddie and the Hot Rods are one of my many favorite English bands, and I always wanted to see them in concert when they released their debut album "Teenage Depression". This live performance of them on January 22nd, 1977 was just one day before my 21st birthday.

[@ScottishTeeVee]

I take it that you never managed to see them?

[@vegetableman5062]

I saw them at The Marquee in summer '77 when Do Anything ' was riding high. It was so rammed and so hot I fainted! They were of course, brilliant.

[@stevendimmock4791]

This version of the band, the classic version, were the tightest band You could ever see. Absolute rock 'n' roll perfection. They made You know that You were alive!!

Fantastic band. Saw many times from 77 to a few years before Barry passed away

[@ScottishTeeVee]

[@asmrcritique6565]

This band has elements of blues, punk, and rock to it, and they perform each of the genres very well.

Surely 'one of' if not the greatest 'Pub Rock' band, who went onto influence and were a part of the original 1976 pUnK rOcK Revolution! The first LP is Amazing! dx

[@FrankS-d5j]

They fall into proto punk more then actual punk if you want be picky. Regardless they rock. People get obsessed with labels

[@sct352t3]

Teenage Depression opened the 11th November 1976 Top of the Pops. I remember it well as everyone at school was talking about it the next day as it was deemed 'punk rock'. Sadly the episode has been wiped so it is great to see the performance here. Chicago were number one with 'If you leave me now'.

[@ScottishTeeVee]

You have a better memory than I. I'm not even sure where I was an hour ago

[@alanlloyd9986]

@@ScottishTeeVee haha 😂😂😂

[@alanlloyd9986]

Did you like "if you leave me now" ?? I love 70's punk and basic rock (which is what this song is) but I also love pop from the 70's .

[@stevebowness9435]

sct352 T 💯 Correct Sir, Remember the Top Of The Pops performance, I was aged 21, loved the Hot Rods and Dr Feelgood.

[@martinlefox1983]

How overlooked the Hot Rods' first two albums are. They had the perfect point between 60s stuff like the Who, early powerpop, the energic R&B 70s as dr. Feelgood and , of course, 77 punk rock. They actually got a bunch of anthems!

[@laroudoune]

Eddie and the hot Rods , Dr Feelgood, Hurriganes the 70´s …nostalgia

[@raphaelrousso7124]

@@CIMAmotor if you’re saxon speaking ( and i guess you don’t speak Gaelic or maybe) then you ´re a celt assimilated ( correct word ?) but nobody cares so let’s be proud too. Anyway your country gave birth to Rock’n’Roll and that is something to be proud of.

@@raphaelrousso7124 I would say (like most people) that the USA gave birth to rock and roll.

[@raphaelrousso7124]

@@CIMAmotor i knew you'd answered that . to me not the same : Irish , Scottish , and English Music gave birth to Bluegrass during colonisation , and Country Music later on that gave birth to traditionnal Rock'n'Roll ( Elvis , Vincent , Cochran and all the others Greats ). You will object : what about the Blues ? and i will agree that Blues is a purely American thing but i hear more Country than Blues in traditionnal Rock'n'Roll. This is my vision , it's worth what it's worth
